pulled most of the top end apart, two of the headbolts were loose!!

Both engines out.... Might have her up & running by tea time if I get home from work at a reasonable time....

99% done, just got to straighten up the steering wheel & adjust the injection timing... currently on -7 degrees!! suppose that is why it had the biggest battery in the world fitted!!

timing done along with the steering wheel...

thermostat stuck open which would have been nice to know with the engine out

So far so good

Was having a problem getting a proper oil reading on the dipstick of the donor engine which seemed a little odd!!

have drained 3 1/2 litres of oil out of it which makes reading the mark a little easier!! I suspect it is still 1/2-1 litre above the mark but may just get a new filter & oil tomorrow just so I know it is done!!

I do wonder how someone could manage to put best part of 4 litres too much oil in a car!!!
